The Korena take

SSL 2 MKII is a bus-powered USB interface built around two SSL-designed mic preamps, 32-bit/192kHz conversion, and a Legacy 4K enhancement circuit. Its two combo XLR/TRS inputs accept microphone or line-level sources, while two Hi-Z inputs cover direct instrument recording. Balanced monitor outputs and two headphone outputs support recording and playback setups. Switchable phantom power and high-pass filters extend the preamp controls, and the included SSL Production Pack adds instruments, effects, samples, and a DAW.
